Hi CRM-CRM-CRM, :D Longhand :lol: , welcome to the site.
Ignition switch, I think the XRs are also common, [others may know], but it's probably gonna be an "ouch" moment. :(

i think mikes right ignition switches arent really worth a recon better to try other sources or try finding a similar one off another bike

I've bought a new barrel and key for less than £5 off eBay but it doesn't have the steering lock facility.

£125 buys a really good lock :!:

Mine was knackered too, I picture matched one from an early jellymold CBR 600, and it fits like a dream...perfect match, steering lock too!
